Currently the best way to generate a backlink list is to do
a search for the pagename.  This can be done within a page
by using (:pagelist {$FullName} :).

When the revised pagelist code is ready, a better (faster, more
accurate) backlinks capability will be available via:

  (:pagelist link={$FullName} :)

Of course, one will be able to provide a variety of 'fmt=' options
to display the set of pages in different formats.

If the author wants the listing to appear without showing things
such as RecentChanges links, then:

  (:pagelist {$FullName} list=normal :)
